What is the diffrence between an ELCB(earth leakage circuit
breaker) and RCCB(residual current circuit breaker)?which
has higher degree of safety and why?

Answer Posted / rvg

ELCB having protection against earth faults, but RCCB having
over current protection as well as earth fault protection.
So RCCB having higher degree of protection.
